Your Wireless device will have NAT which acts like a firewall. If it does not use UPnP or use it very well, then you may need to port forward the device. User Cant Connect - LimeWire. Despite what LW says, modems & routers are a frequent problem because not all have reliable UPnP.

Also If LW Will Not Connect (click on the blue link)

For wireless help. Brand & model would be a help. :)

If you updated LimeWire & cannot find your Downloads

I see you're using Verizon ISP.
Sometimes LW can be slow to connect. Especially if too many incomplete files flooding your modem/router. Disabling the Performance options & purging incomplete files sometimes does the trick. If LW Will Not Connect (click on the blue link). Sometimes the problem is fake/dud ultrapeers you connect to.
